Description
Skip the menu. Open Developer Options in a single tap. Developer Options Shortcut is a direct shortcut to the Android Developer Options screen, eliminating the need to navigate through multiple layers of the Settings menu every time you need access. Built for Android developers, QA engineers, and power users who work with developer mode regularly, the app is lightweight, focused, and built to do one thing well.
New: Quick Settings tile
A Quick Settings tile is now available. Add the tile to your notification shade and launch Developer Options directly from anywhere on your device — no need to open an app drawer or home screen first. Whether you're toggling USB debugging between builds or adjusting animation scale during a design review, it's the fastest path to dev options available on Android.
Key features
- One-tap shortcut to the Developer Options screen - Quick Settings tile for instant access from any screen - Guided setup if Developer Options isn't enabled yet — the app detects it and walks you through unlocking developer mode - Lightweight footprint with no unnecessary permissions - Clean, distraction-free design - No ads, no tracking
Built for the settings you actually use
Developer Options Shortcut is designed around the workflows of people who live in dev options every day:
- Enable or disable USB debugging before connecting to ADB - Toggle mock location for testing location-aware features - Adjust animation scale to speed up your device or record demo videos - Turn on show layout bounds to inspect UI rendering - Change background process limits while profiling performance - Switch debug mode settings during QA passes
Instead of opening Settings, scrolling to System, expanding Advanced, and tapping into Developer Options every single time, you get there in one tap — or zero, from the Quick Settings tile.
Who it's for
- Android developers building, testing, and debugging apps - QA engineers running test passes that require ADB, USB debugging, or mock location - Power users who customize animation scale, developer mode flags, and advanced system behavior - Anyone who frequently opens Developer Options and wants a faster shortcut
Stop scrolling through settings. Add the tile, tap the icon, and get straight to work.
Recent changes: Smoother opening, better tablet/foldable layouts, and more languages.

Amazing, this is exactly what I was looking for. A simple shortcut that opens Developer Options directly no unnecessary menus, no fancy GUI just straight to the settings. Clean lightweight and does exactly what it promises. 😀👍🙂

Still works great in Android 12 on my S22+, just wish we could shortcut to a specific option.

It works perfect, but sometimes it doesn't show developer option and says go to activate developer option but after activate developer option by pressing build number I go back to still it says activate developer option then developer option will show automatically.

I don't know! It's easy to use or not!because it's required me to rate it before using!😆😆 and now I think it doesn't better anymore! I just want to find unknown sources!but my phone setting doesn't have it!so I need to find an app!and this app it's required me to allow developer option, so I don't need it!(sorry if something wrong)

Getting an error message saying "Sorry, but it looks as though this option is not supported on your device". My device is Samsung Galaxy J7 prime (Android 8.1 stock ROM). So, obviously it would be supported.
